His expertise in e-health, electronic health records, and big data was invaluable in my case involving hospital data compliance. He provided clear, strategic advice and demonstrated a deep understanding of both legal and technological challenges.

Timothy Garcia
I worked with Stephen W. Bernstein on a complex electronic health record system deployment for a mid-sized medical practice. His expertise in e-health and health data systems was evident, especially given his long-standing recognition in healthcare law. However, while he clearly understood the intricate regulations and compliance requirements, I found his communication style a bit formal and at times overly technical for our team's needs. There were delays in responses when we needed quicker turnaround times, which impacted our project timeline. He delivered solid legal advice, particularly around HIPAA compliance, which was critical. But if you're looking for an attorney who combines deep expertise with more personalized, timely communication, you might want to manage expectations accordingly. Still, his knowledge of academic medical centers and corporate health law was invaluable for our specific situation.
